Re: Crab on the hamster wheel
I've never seen this wheel modified....we modify the silent spinner wheels. It's worth a shot though!GabyRaven wrote:That's what I'm gonna try to do for this wheel so they can do that Never seen them do that before so I didn't modify it!daws409 wrote:Hahaha! That's funny.

Re: Crab on the hamster wheel
I'm thinking about a wheel. What happens when a crab climbs on the outside of it, though? Mine like to climb on the outside of our hanging coconut but never go inside. I could see them climbing on the outside of a wheel and falling off!

Re: Crab on the hamster wheel
You hang the silent spinner upside down. Unless the wheel is stuck a crab shouldn't be able to climb it. I try to hang mine so that it isn't by anything they can get onto other than the rock to step into it in. I have had multiple crabs climb the inside while one walks due to craft mesh, but not using this the comfort wheel (which is this one pictured).hprmom wrote:I'm thinking about a wheel.

Re: Crab on the hamster wheel
Upside down? When I look at the picture it looks like the support is resting in the sub.... i thought i understood this, but I am clearly not getting something... what do you use to attach it an to where?

Re: Crab on the hamster wheel
I used duct tape to secure a rod to a hole I drilled in the back part where the metal stand goes in. Then, I took tape and wrapped the top of the rod and taped over the rim onto the side so the tape hung the wheel in place. The rod was so it would stay vertical lol, idk about the hanging upside down thoughLadyJinglyJones wrote:Upside down?

Re: Crab on the hamster wheel
She didn't hang hers upside down. You can simply flip the stand upside down and hang it with command hooks. It prevents the stand from sinking and from getting climbed on It also allows you to hang it higher so that crabs cannot slow the wheel down by climbing underneath it.LadyJinglyJones wrote:Upside down?
